And you know what? There's really not a damned thing wrong
with that - "profits" are not inherently a bad thing, especially when
you realize that there would be NO profit in doing this sort of
thing IF PEOPLE DIDN'T BUY THE PRODUCT. The market
in this case is ruthlessly democratic; as long as the majority of
people vote with their dollars in favor of low cost over high quality,
the market continues to deliver it as exactly what they want. The
"good stuff" is still out there - it's just harder to find and more costly
as a result of what the free market has determined is the optimum
product offering.
Sorry about that.
